Gusto Payroll, Inside HelloBooks
US payroll, employees, and tax journals — synced automatically from Gusto into your HelloBooks ledger. Coming soon, pending Gusto Partner approval.
Not affiliated with or endorsed by Gusto until partner approval is granted.
Built for US small businesses
One click to connect your Gusto account. From then on, every pay run posts itself to your books — no spreadsheets, no manual journals, no end-of-year reconciliation.
Employee & Contractor Sync
Your full Gusto roster — W-2 employees and 1099 contractors — flows into HelloBooks the moment you connect. No duplicate data entry, no copy-paste.
Automatic Payroll Journal Entries
Every processed pay run posts wages, employer taxes, benefits, and deductions to the correct General Ledger accounts. Your books match Gusto, automatically.
IRS-Compliant Year-End Forms
Gusto handles W-2s, 1099s, and federal/state filings. HelloBooks reflects the same numbers in your annual financials — audit-ready, no reconciliation.
Read-Only & Secure
HelloBooks only reads payroll data — we never run payroll, move money, or change tax setup in Gusto. OAuth tokens are encrypted at rest, scoped per business.
Three steps. One time. Done.
Connect
Click "Connect Gusto" in Settings → Integrations. You authenticate once with your Gusto credentials — HelloBooks never sees your password.
Sync
Your employee roster appears in HelloBooks. Going forward, every processed payroll run flows in as a journal entry — wages, taxes, benefits, the lot.
Done
Your P&L, balance sheet, and year-end reports always match Gusto. No spreadsheets, no end-of-quarter reconciliation, no surprises at tax time.
